Bittersweet

I could show you now but you’re never gonna see
Cause you’re watching me go up in smoke
I could shut it down, when I lose, you’re gonna leave
But you know that I’ll fall out alone

There’s secrets that you know
And secrets that I hold

Take these tired wings. Home is calling you to sleep
Love so bittersweet. All the happy tears it brings
Winter wind will fly you back to me
Bittersweet

I could tell you lies that I know you wanna hear
But the words would only build a wall
Gonna wash my hands till the river runs clear
As the years go by, we rise and fall

Take these tired wings. Home is calling you to sleep
Love so bittersweet. All the happy tears it brings
Winter wind will fly you back to me
Bittersweet

Falling through the cracks, never gonna see, never gonna see
It’s not coming back, not for anything, not for anything!
I know what you need, telling me you’re free, we go on...
Falling through the cracks, never gonna see
